What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours, depending on the damage from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First, we check the damage and the finish we need to match.
- Burnt or loose material is cut back.
- The area is filled and shaped.
- We recreate the pattern, flecks or grain.
- It’s finished to the same sheen and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
About our worktop repair in New Smithy
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: laminate is filled and patterned, quartz and stone are filled and polished, and wood is sanded and refinished. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Our repair technicians work on solid surface (such as Corian), granite & marble and solid wood, and the jobs we see most are damage around the sink cut-out and chipped corners.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
New Smithy questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair a chipped quartz worktop?
Yes. The repair is colour matched and polished to the quartz’s finish.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Wood
Timber tops can be sanded and refinished, and burns and dents repaired.
Laminate
A laminate worktop is a thin decorative layer on a board. Damage is filled and the pattern painted in by hand.
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Use a chopping board
- Keep joints and edges dry
- Use pH-neutral cleaners on stone
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
Use chopping boards and trivets, wipe up spills promptly, and re-oil wooden worktops regularly.
A burn or chip can get worse with daily use. An earlier repair is a smaller repair.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Laminate that has blown or swollen
- A top that moves on its units
- Through cracks in stone that is moving
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Solid wood
- Quartz
- Granite & marble
- Laminate
- Solid surface (such as Corian)
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What worktop repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including New Smithy. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for New Smithy. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
